A word from The Fish Shack
From the fisherman's ship to the Granville Street strip – here, the seafood is as fresh as the crowd. So roll up your sleeves, tie on a bib, grab a mallet and dig in – The Fish Shack has arrived.
Be lured by the freshest seafood direct from the boat to your table. Fish so fresh they
jump off the plate, oysters worthy of slurping and the best fish n' chips you've ever had.

Diner Reviews
A friend and I booked a table for
Friday night. It was our first time in The Fish Shack and we were impressed with the location, decor, ambience and menu. When my food arrived I waited for a few minutes for my friends to arrive so that we would dine together. This didn't happen and I had finished my food, the table was cleared and we had to wait another 15 minutes before her food arrived. Not the ideal dining experience! The waiter on our table was absolutely lovely and explained that the kitchen were way behind. Because he was so pleasant and took the time to explain the situation and I be back to give the place another chance! I just hope that the next time the kitchen our on their game! "

I love the food. I like coming for
lunch and getting the lunch box with the fish tacos. mmm so good!"

Food was mediocre for the price,
and service was lacking. Wouldn't recommend the Fish Shack."

This is the second time I've gone
to this restaurant and it's the second time that I've had this terrible service. First, I ordered a drink and after 20 minutes, they still haven't given me the drink. Second, I ordered steamed mussels as an appetizer and the waiter brought the other three appetizers to the table except mine. He said that the bartenders made a mistake and it will only be a few minutes to get mine. 20 minutes later, I never got it so I cancelled it because I didn't want to keep my relatives waiting. As far as the lunch was concerned, we didn't get our food for an hour. I don't know what they have in the kitchen but they must only have a couple of steamers and they can't handle a surge of customers at lunch."

Overall my experience with the
Fish Shack is and always has been excellent. Great prices and if you love seafood this is the place to dine, not to mention they make the best Caesar's in town."
Dined on 3/30/2014
Great fun atmosphere but it was
simply too expensive for what we got. The bill for the three adults was $138 before tip and we ended up going out for dessert elsewhere and EASILY had room for a large crepe each. The prices need to be dropped by about a third for us to go back -or else increase the portions."
Dined on 3/29/2014
I had wanted to try The Fish Shack
for awhile but it was a rather disappointing evening. I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant and the decor. There was good energy and it was pretty busy. Our waiter was friendly and pleasant but it did take quite awhile to get our drinks and I had to ask several times for a glass of water. Once the food arrived, we never saw him again till he brought the bill. The food was the disappointing part. We started with a very good calamari appetizer but it went downhill from there. I ordered the grilled halibut which was two very thin pieces that were overcooked and extremely dry with no flavour. My friend ordered the fish tacos. The fish was like a ground mixture with an odd texture and very little flavour."
Dined on 3/25/2014
Had deep fried oyster appetizer
and grilled rock fish with rice. I in particular enjoyed the oysters. The peppery mayo that went with the oysters was very good."
Dined on 3/18/2014
The fish in the fish tacos were
frozen basa filets and the fish and chips were very oily. The coleslaw was drenched in horseradish and the salmon cakes were cold and crumbly when served. The only good thing were the steamed clams and mussels. Service isn't up to par. Couple times I had to look around for servers to fill our water or even give us plates but most of the time, they were just socializing with one another. Worst bit, frozen fish tacos and the fish and chips took almost an hour to come. I would never come back and you shouldn't either with the plethora of casual seafood restaurants in Vancouver."
Dined on 3/19/2014
The mussels were not very hot and
were chewy and were not served in any broth."
Dined on 3/15/2014
I was looking for a seafood place
in Granville area and decided to try Fish Shack. It was a real hit- the food was excellent, all seafood is fresh, portions are decently sized and priced. The service is very good. Our first visit was mid-February, and we have been there two more times since. Everyone loved it, and definitely we are going to be back. The restaurant has a very interesting and unique decor, decent choice of beers and wine and very attractive special offers - e.g. buck-a-shack before 6 pm. We did not book it for our first visit, as it was a weekday and there were only two of us. For the next two visits I made a reservation, as the group was bigger and it was Saturday evening - and I am glad I did, the restaurant was full."
Dined on 3/8/2014
Their website advertised a
Valentines Day Set Dinner Special which was available February 11th – 16th. So booked a reservation on the 16th via Open Table. When we arrived the server told us it had ended on the day before :( She pushed their Sunday lobster special. We went for that but she later came back to tell us that it was sold out, as it was a first come first serve special :( We were there at 6:30pm. So we had the popcorn shrimp + fishermans' catch. Both were very good! Overall, the food was great, but our server was very slow with drinks and refills. Also she was absent for most of the meal and took a long time with the bill."
Dined on 2/16/2014
terrible place, terrible drinks,
terrible service, terrible food. YUCK!"
Dined on 2/14/2014
We enjoyed our meal very much. The
food tasted fresh and was prepared perfectly. Our only complaint is that we felt cramped for space. We would have liked a few fewer tables on the floor to allow more personal space between the tables."
Dined on 2/1/2014
My dining partner and I thoroughly
enjoyed our experience. We had a reservation at 7pm and arrived early. It was VERY busy which surprised me because from the outside this does not look like a large restaurant or one that is hopping. It was though!! The food was excellent - well cooked not greasy and for Dine out there was soooo much. Definite man meals. Living downtown it is really hard to find a reasonably priced seafood restaurant. They go from cheap and nasty to extremely snooty and expensive. so I believe your restaurant fills a long awaited void. We will return."
Dined on 2/9/2014
Made my reservations through open
table and I even called the same day to confirm. However, when I showed up with my friends, the host tells me that there's no reservation under my name. I tried to explain to him that I had made reservations but he brushed me off. The restaurant was pretty empty so we were seated in the end. Our server was rude from the very start. He took our order but made no eye contact whatsoever. Didn't even know if he was paying attention, but soon learned he wasn't as he brought me the wrong drink. Also, how difficult is it to place the dish onto the table? I did not appreciate having my plate handed to me. The last thing that annoyed me that night was having the bill tossed onto the table. Definitely not coming back"
Dined on 2/4/2014
The food took a little long the
day I went, but other than that, the waiter was very good, apologising and keeping us up-to-date. And the food when it did arrive was great."
Dined on 12/22/2013
We made reservation for 6:15 PM,
went in 10 minutes late, we were told to wait 30 minutes. While waiting, we saw 2 tables that were available, asked if we could get seated on one of them, were told that they are waiting guests for 7 PM - same hour that we were told we will have a table anyways. Based on their own admission that at least one other table would be available at 7 PM ,we did not see the logic in us waiting when two! tables were available. After host denied us second time to be seated we had to leave, will not return because of the un-professional staff there."
Dined on 1/29/2014
If you don't like sitting at a
table next to a constant talker, you should ask for a separate table from the line-up on the wall area."
Dined on 2/2/2014
I have mixed feelings about Fish
Shack. The tables were very close to each other- too close to be my comfort zone. One server was very rude, then the other was very friendly. The mussels were awesome, but the main dishes were so so. The seating was strange...one part of the restaurant was very crowded, the other part was relatively empty. It seemed a romantic place for couples, but then you could not talk comfortably as you could hear the conversation from the table besides you or vice versa. The only time I will go back again is for a dollar oyster b4 6pm.....I think Happy-Hour will be my best bet in Fish Shack...."
Dined on 2/1/2014
This was my 1st dining experience
and may not return again due to the lack of service. After being seated, my guest & I waited so long for our server that we had enough time to decide what we wanted for drinks, appys, entrees & desserts. Everytime our server brought us a particular course, the plates from the previous course were still not yet cleared from our table. My guest placed an order for his 2nd drink when our server came around w/ our entrees and by the time my guest was done his entree, he still didn't get his drink yet. He had to inform the manager that he did not receive his drink yet & how long the wait was. When we were still enjoying our dessert, the server brought us our bill when we did not ask for it yet. Service not good."
Dined on 1/25/2014
The Fish Shack's $18 menu can't
really be beat - good selection of appy and entrees and good value options for add-ons like lobster tail and extra 1/2 pound of mussels. Only my first time at this restaurant so can't say what the regular menu is like. Service can be slow. Kind of odd because our waitress was good at being proactive and asking if we wanted certain things - water, the bill etc. - to which we would say yes but she doesn't follow through. The beer pairings were good."
Dined on 2/1/2014
food excellent but ambiance a
little too casual and rustic for our taste."
Dined on 1/31/2014
Awesome fresh tasting seafood.
Service was great. A little loud but not meant to be a quiet romantic hangout! Definitely will go back!"
Dined on 1/28/2014
First experience at Fish Shack
through Dine Out Vancouver. Like it very much. The mussels are good and tasty. The mixed fries are yummy. Servers are friendly. Reasonable price. I will come again for the fresh oysters."
Dined on 1/28/2014
The food portions were just okay.
The taste was just okay. We had the bucket of seafood and it was cold. Nothing amazing about it. Overpriced for what it was. Service was okay. We waited a long time to order and waited a long time to get our food and needed to wait a long time to ask for our bill. We thought it would be a nice night out but it really was an annoying experience. It took me months to even want to talk about this experience and write this review because I don't even want to think about this place. Wish it was better all around."
Dined on 11/8/2013
Place was noisy. Music was very
loud. It is a place for the younger generation of which I am not a part of. I can recommend for kids in their late 20's, early 3-'s but it is not for me. Food was good. The toffee pudding was excellent. Service was fast. they served the main dish five minutes after serving the appetizer."
Dined on 1/24/2014
the food was a disappointment. The
mussels didn't taste very fresh and the clamato broth was bland and minimal. The fried seafood appetizer was quite good though. The main course was not bad but nothing special. The dessert was good but sloppily presented, my cake was smashed and didn't look appetizing. The server was very friendly and helpful, and the alcohol menu was well priced and a nice variety of options."
Dined on 1/26/2014
great food, energetic environment,
good decor, friendly staff, will return =)"
Dined on 1/26/2014
Mussels and the mixed fry were
great (preferable mussels, we added an extra half pound). Filet-o-Fish sandwich was really good, but the penne jambalaya was a big disappointment. 2 orders of the penne from my table end up not finishing the dish because do that. I upgraded the fries from my sandwich to poutine and the poutine was really really yummy. Dessert was alright. The serving time took way too long. Took a full 2 hours to finish the dinner and more than half the time was waiting time. Overall the food was great -"
Dined on 1/25/2014
The restaurant itself was really
nice, but it was quite busy. I do not blame the restaurant though, my boyfriend and I decided to try this restaurant out because of the Dine Out Vancouver Festival, so there were extra crowds that night. The food was pretty good, but our waiter, kind of only gave attention to me, and not my boyfriend which kind of peeved me a little bit. And when we ordered a coke, a coke with rum came and was given to me, even though my boyfriend ordered it.....weird. But after that, the rest of the night went without a hitch. The dessert though, was to die for. I'm not really into dessert, or too much sweet, but it was a vanilla type cake with toffee sauce drizzled all over and their house made whipped cream, TOO GOOD!"
Dined on 1/25/2014
Popular place where you should
reserve online before to avoid waiting. We did not have to wait as our table was waiting for us. Casual restaurant with an energetic atmosphere; giant tv screens, varied music, and the warf's giant bell even rang a few times! Service was quick and helpful, rather large selection in the menu. Good selection for beer even if they were out of R&B, Chose a Big Catch and it was great; can't get seafood any fresher as you get the meat of the shells yourself. Server was perfect, he knew when to be present without cutting in our conversation; the free berry crum cake was delicious! Great dinning experience; not cheap but it's still affordable. We discussed coming back during the Summer to try the outdoor eating bar."
Dined on 1/25/2014
After spotting the Dine Out menu
online we phoned ahead to make a five o clock booking. The person who took the call offered 15:30 at best. We arrived to the restaurant and informed the maitre d that we had reserved for 15:30. He then informed us that the Dine Out menu did not start until 5 at which point we explained that we had spoken with someone on the phone and booked on the website based on this conversation. He advised that he would ask the Manager but came back a moment later and said there were no exceptions. We then left the restaurant very disappointed with the unfriendly customer service of the maitre d who did not seem too bothered that we would never be back to the restaurant again because of his handling of the situation."
Dined on 1/18/2014
The food was great but our waiter
was even better. He was just so friendly and personable and continually checked up on us to make sure everything was ok. Great service!!!"
Dined on 1/20/2014
Just recently my friend and I went
to eat at the Fish Shack. The menu was innovative, fun, and tasty. I enjoy my seafood and thought we would try the Dine Out Vancouver Menu. To my surprise we decided to order from the regular menu and it was delicious. Not too pricey but must admit the tables we close together so getting up and moving around in some area was a bit difficult. All in all though a great experience."
Dined on 1/17/2014
My family and I came here for
dineout Vancouver. Since I made online reservations, we were seated promptly when we arrived....then everything went downhill from that point. Our appetizers took awhile to arrive ( 30 min), and our main course took another 40 minutes from the time our appetizer plates got taken away. We were shocked since our main entree were all fish burgers. How long does it take to dry fish???!?? Service was not what we would have expected from glowbal group. Our waitress never once asked if we wanted another drink. Dessert was good but was missing the chantilly cream as stated on the menu! Someone must have rushed them out but lacked attention to detail:( would not recommend this place after our experience."
Dined on 1/18/2014
Came for Dine Out 2014 and had a
mediocre experience. Reservation was for 7 PM with a preset menu and waited over an hour for our appetizer. Confusion in the kitchen and miscommunication between serving staff and management with regard to items no longer available and what was offered as a substitution. Love Glowbal Group but the Fish Shack was a little lacklustre. A little to casual of a dining experience."
Dined on 1/18/2014
we had a great anniversary here,
the server was more than outstanding made us feel special..food was delicious.brussel sprouts a bit spicy but our server changed it to suit our taste better which was great..and quite affordable for a seafood place."

Hi :-)!
I'm working on Elite clone for a school project, with Opengl and Glut.
How can i make a static background with star?
I have thought to use a skybox, but i have some questions.
I have found some images for texture, for example: http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/64/starsbknh1.jpg
- The size of box around the camera.
- The size and the numbers of texture (the same texture for all face or one different texture for every face).
- The box must be transparent (How?).
- How can i obtain an lighting effect of the star?
Too many questions, sorry :-(!

And while the awe-inspiring work is still in progress today, viewers will have an opportunity to see what goes into such large-scale production at the Nevada Museum of Art's "Unlocking an Archive: Michael Heizer and Walter de Maria" exhibit opening Saturday.
The collection, which was donated in January to the NMA by the artists' close friend G. Robert Deiro, will showcase documents, photographs, posters and sketches of the creative process behind the popular late '60s and early '70s environmental art movement.
"Michael Heizer and Walter de Maria are some of the most iconic land artists of the 21st century," said Ann Wolfe, curator of exhibitions and collections at NMA. "This exhibit will give a glimpse into the process of the planning stages of those outdoor sculptures."
This exhibit, Wolfe explained, is part of NMA's newly added Center for Art Environment gallery, which is focused on the awareness of creative interactions between people and their environment — either natural, man-made or virtual.
"The earth arts movement manifested itself from a rejection of museums and galleries," Wolfe said. "Artists began turning toward the outdoors, mainly the American Southwest."
Pioneering this desert art-scape were Heizer and de Maria, who were both friends and contemporaries, focusing a lot of their work here in Nevada.
De Maria, a sculptor and composer, is best known for his project "Lightning Field" in New Mexico, where 400 stainless steel rods arranged in a large grid help conduct a lightning show during storms. He had originally slated the piece for Nevada.
"Heizer actually brought out de Maria to this area," Wolfe said. "Nevada is a sort of birthplace of earthworks."
De Maria's original sketches for "Lightning Show," which are drawn on a paper napkin, will be on display for the exhibit, Wolfe said.
Heizer's notable work includes "Double Negative," a 1,500-foot trench cut into the side of a mesa in Nevada. Renderings and preparation materials, including Heizer's hard hat worn during installation and construction, will be on display.
The entire collection, which includes materials spanning seven or eight projects from the two artists, represents the NMA's goal for the Center for Art Environment, Wolfe said.
"We want to support not just the display of art, but the process of art making," Wolfe said. "This exhibit will really help to show what an artist thought process, the creative process, is all about."
This exhibit also marks the first time many of these materials will be displayed to the public, mainly due in part to the donator, Deiro, who insisted that the pieces remain in Nevada, Wolfe explained.
"G. Robert Deiro really recognized the significance of the materials he owned," Wolfe said, explaining that Deiro actually helped both artists by flying them around to select spots for their works. "He (Deiro) is a long-time resident of Nevada and he felt they should remain in the state."
The exhibit opens Saturday and runs until Sept. 13. Admission prices are $10 for adults, $8 for students and seniors and $1 for children six to 12 years old. Children ages 5 and under are free.
The NMA is located at 160 W. Liberty St. in Reno.

FORTUNE -- Andrej Nabergoj has spent the last year turning a $60 cat into a millionaire. He's the CEO of Outfit7, the company that makes the talking-character apps your three-year old has likely been teething on for the past few months. All of Outfit7's apps follow the same formula: grab a 3D model of something adorable -- an animal, a fairy, a Santa Clause, whatever -- have them do adorable things when somebody touches them, and have them parrot back whatever someone says into the built-in mic in an adorable voice. If this sounds reductive, it's because it is. The apps don't really do much. Besides sell. Outfit7 says people have downloaded nearly 110 million Outfit7 apps, and they bring in millions of revenue every month. Adorable!
This all started when Outfit7 bought that $60 cat. It was over a year ago, and Outfit7 didn't exist yet. Nabergoj's goal has always been sheer volume. But OutFit7's founder, Samo Login*, didn't want to make a game, worried that there'd be too much competition. He came up with the idea to make non-game apps based around a character. And who most easily relates to characters than your kids?
So off Nabergoj went to find Outfit7's mascot. He eventually found a feral cat at Turbosquid, a 3D model marketplace. For $60, Login bought him, named him Talking Tom, and handed him over to Outfit7's developers, who created a set number of animations, coded the voice talkback, and published the app in July 2010. Within the first 13 days, one million people downloaded the free app. It was so successful Nabergoj went on a hunt to find the anonymous designer who created the cat model. After almost two months of searching, and what he says were calls to "the Russian secret service agency," Nabergoj found his man, Andrey Kravchenko, in Ukraine. Nabergoj brought Kravchenko into the company.Now, 10 months after its debut, there are more than 55 million copies* of Talking Tom scattered across the world. And, as is now part of the lifecycle of any popular thing on the Internet, a community of people has emerged on YouTube who upload custom videos of Tom reading a script in his trademark helium screech. Even more confusing/surprising/worrying, many of these videos get hundreds of thousands of views. People are scripting elaborate monologue sketches, casting Tom as their lead. In the most-watched video (more than 1.2 million views), Tom sings a squeeky ode to Jesus. In another (more than 450,000 views), he sings Justin Bieber's "Baby."

In case you haven't noticed, this isn't your father's sports television landscape.
Things continue to change rapidly, and the old saying that goes "You can't tell the players without a scorecard" has now changed to "You can't tell who's doing the game without a channel grid."
Changes are coming daily and it seems as though sports media grows more and more splintered.
This week brought another significant change, and no, we're not talking about Carrie Underwood replacing Faith Hill as the "Waiting All Day For Sunday Night" singer leading into NBC's Sunday Night NFL game, although we heartily endorse it.
As recently as the 1980s, all big-time sports was generally on CBS, NBC and ABC.
And then you had Fox emerge as a force in the mid-1990s, doing its first Super Bowl in January 1997 and its first World Series in 2000.
ESPN has long had a foothold on college football and basketball and then got its own NBA, NFL and MLB packages as well.
And then along came the MLB Network, the NFL Network, the Golf Channel, the Speed Channel, the Big Ten Network and Comcast SportsNet and the cable floodgates opened up to the point that every single minute of every day, some sports programming could be seen at some spot on the remote.
Most recently, we've seen the CBS Sports Network and the NBC Sports Network sprout up and we know that Fox is unveiling its all-new sports channel called Fox Sports 1 on Aug. 17.
At least we could take comfort that the major networks still were holding steady with ownership of most of the major events in sports — the Super Bowl, World Series, The Masters, the Kentucky Derby, NBA Finals etc. — but those days are also ending.
TBS became the exclusive home of baseball's division series games back in 2007 and also now has either the National League or American League Championship Series every year.
And then this week came news that TBS will have the NCAA Men's Final Four semifinal games beginning next April and then will have the championship game on a rotating basis with CBS beginning in 2016.
CBS has done the national title game since 1982 and will have it the next two years, but then yet one more tradition will come to an end.
Maybe this is not such a big deal, but traditionalists like me who are reticent to change just can't easily grasp college basketball's biggest games being on TBS.
What's next? The Super Bowl on the Hallmark Channel?
What's it all about?
Money, of course.
When the announcement was made this week, the execs talked about the ability to combine resources.
There's only one resource they're truly interested in, however, and sports fans well know it by now.
So, get your channel charts ready because the days of finding sports' biggest events on the single-digit channels are coming to an end.

USDA issued a rule on the proposed meal pattern standards on January 13, 2011, starting a 90 day comment period. All comments on the proposed meal pattern requirements are due by April 13, 2011. SNA is currently drafting official comments to submit prior to the April 13th deadline.
SNA has convened an 11 person task force, headed by President elect Helen Phillips, to review, discuss and draft SNA's official comments on the proposed meal pattern requirements. The Task Force on Nutrition Standards in the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs met from February 15-16th, to begin this process.
There are several opportunities for you to contribute to SNA's official comments. Please leave your thoughts and concerns in the comments section below this story. Task Force members will continually monitor the comments submitted.
There will also be two opportunities at LAC for you to voice your ideas. SNA members will be able to address attending LAC Task Force members during the timeframe of 5:30-6:30 PM (Rayburn Room of the J.W. Marriott) on Sunday, March 6th. During the closing general session on Wednesday, March 9th, LAC attendees will have an opportunity to speak with Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack and other USDA officials on the issues affecting the proposed meal pattern standards. In addition, over 6 hours of general session time will be dedicated to discussing the proposed meal pattern standards and the new Child Nutrition Reauthorization law.
SNA members will also have an opportunity to remark on the draft comments, expected to be posted in mid-March.

Increasing numbers of U.S. doctors regret their career choices --- even while taking in salaries average Americans might consider pretty sweet. Those salaries remain much sweeter for some specialists than others, though, according to an annual survey of physician pay from Medscape/WebMD.
Among the highest-paid doctors, according the survey of 24,000 physicians:
Among the lowest paid:
You'll notice that the doctors most people see most often -- the pediatricians, family doctors and internists who handle regular checkups and most illnesses -- make the least money. But pay for so-called "primary care" doctors is rising a bit, the survey shows, as pay for some big-money specialists declines. Those radiologists and orthopedic surgeons at the top of the pay heap actually made 10% less in the past year; general surgeons made 12% less.
In comments accompanying the survey, many physicians said they feared changes in the health care system would mean lower incomes in years to come, Medscape reports. Maybe that's one reason just 54% said they would choose a career in medicine again, down from 69% percent in 2011.
For now, just 11% say they consider themselves "rich" -- and 45% agree that "my income probably qualifies me as rich, but I have so many debts and expenses that I don't feel rich."

Librarians are professionals trained in information science. Working at a school, local library in a town, or even for the government, a librarian aides those in need of informational articles and services while managing and organizing those materials as well.
Sokanu matches you to one of over 500 careers by analyzing your personality, interests, and needs in life. Take the free assessment now to see your top career recommendations!
Librarians are responsible for a vast amount of information, from the classic management of books and periodicals to more modern responsibilities involving audio and video recordings and digital resources and services.
There are different classes of librarians in this modern era, including Public Service Librarians, Reference and Research Librarians, Technical Service Librarians, Collections Development Librarians, Archivists, Systems Librarians, Electronic Resources Librarians, Outreach Librarians, and School Librarians. The general duties of each are outlined by class below.
Public Service Librarians - spend their time working with the public in many local libraries worldwide. They provide proper material for each age range from child to adult. A Public Service Librarian advocates reading competence with many libraries offering services for children that aid in early learning.
Reference and Research Librarians - specialize in aiding with research. An interview is often performed with the individual requesting research aid to help organize the proper materials and services that will be needed for the research. Research often involves a very specific subject and a Reference and Research Librarian will give directions on the proper database needed and the use of the database, along with locating and organizing any specialized materials that will be needed.
Technical Service Librarians - are the staff involved in ordering materials and subscriptions, as well as any other equipment needed by the library. Librarians working in this department will supervise new materials, over-seeing the processing and cataloging of each one. Excellent organizational skills are required for this position and strong communication skills are suggested as well as an avid interest in research.
Archivists - are often specialized librarians. They handle many manuscripts, documents and records, varying by country or region. There are many paths taken to reach this profession and the duties can vary between countries.
Systems Librarians - are responsible for maintaining the many systems used in the library. They often troubleshoot any problems that arise in the library cataloging, as well as developing those systems as needed. Systems Librarians should have a sound background with computers as these librarians are responsible for maintaining the computer systems used for record keeping.
Electronic Resources Librarians - are responsible for the management of the databases licensed from third-party vendors. Librarians in this field will need experience with licensing for electronic resources including individual journals, databases, and e-books. They will also need to have strong troubleshooting skills and a good knowledge of the use of these resources. The ability to obtain, compile, and analyze usage data is strongly recommended considering the large amount of resources to be handled in this field.
Outreach Librarians - are responsible for promoting library resources and services, as well as working to develop research proficiency in students. This class of librarians will be active in social networking forums on campuses, making visits to residence halls, and even physical and on-line exhibit development. Excellent communication skills are strongly suggested for this field as this class of librarians will be dealing directly with students to help further their education.
School Librarians - aid in the educational needs of students directly, through the latest information technology as well as traditional materials. This class of librarians will work with students, directing them in the use of the systems available in the library, as well as recommending the correct materials needed for research and learning. School Librarians help to promote education of students, helping teachers to develop a curriculum and acquire the needed materials for classrooms.
Librarians will generally require a master's degree in library science, also called an MLS. This degree is most often requested in positions located in special, academic, and public libraries. Licensing requirements vary from country-to-country and state-to-state, with each having its own minimum requirement. Some institutions also require a Librarian Certification.
Librarians in large universities will often hold a doctoral degree in library and information science, often participating in continuing eduction and library training programs. This helps librarians remain up-to-date on the best resources they can offer to their users.
Librarians can be found working in many places, including college and university campuses, law offices, court houses, local library buildings, public schools, and even in museums. The duties of each position often vary, with a recurring educational theme in their work.
In a university you may find librarians working at the front desk of the library, or in an office organizing the databases to be used in research.
The salary of a librarian varies by field, state (if in the United States), and country the position is held within. Many librarians make an average salary of $50,000 per year in the United States, $36 per hour in Canada, and £23,269 throughout the United Kingdom. Wages vary by region and values from Canada have been figured by taking all amounts in 2009 and creating an average hourly wage.

2013 FirstGrass Concert
|Festivarians at 2011 FirstGrass
(photo Benko Photographics)
For over a decade now Yonder Mountain String Band has officially "kicked-off" Telluride Bluegrass with their Wednesday night show at the Telluride Conference Center. Five years ago we decided that kick-off needed a kick-off of its own...
Join us in the inspiring location of Sunset Plaza in Mountain Village for this free outdoor show from 4-8pm on Wednesday, June 19 featuring Steep Canyon Rangers, Lake Street Dive and Rosco Bandana.
Sunset Plaza in Mountain Village
Sunset Plaza is located along Mountain Village Boulevard in the heart of it all – the Village Center. Well-located with easy access of the Chondola, Sunset Plaza is aptly named because of its west-facing orientation resulting in great sun exposure and amazing sunset views.
|Sunset Plaza in Mountain Village
Sunset Plaza is easily accessible by foot or gondola. Once in the Village Center, stroll through Heritage Plaza and Conference Center Plaza where many of the town's shops and restaurants are located before following the cobblestone walkway to Sunset Plaza.
As always, the gondola from Telluride provides a breathtaking (and free) means of traveling to Mountain Village. Plan to spend the evening in Mountain Village - dining at one of the numerous great restaurants, wandering the shops, taking in the spectacular views, and enjoying the official first bluegrass of the 40th Annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival.
2013 FirstGrass Artists
Charles R. Humphrey III was born under the sign of Capricorn on Christmas Day 1976 in Greenville, North Carolina. He has been playing upright bass since middle school and also studied classically at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, where the Steep Canyon Rangers was formed. Charles has released two side projects of original compositions, "Songs from the Road Band" and "Songs from the Road Band: As The Crow Flies." Twice selected by the IBMA as a showcase songwriter, his songs have been recorded by the Steep Canyon Rangers, Steve Martin, Town Mountain, Mark Schimick, Jed Fisher, Sav Sankaran, The Canucky Bluegrass Boys, and Songs from the Road Band. He's proud to call Asheville, North Carolina home.
Originally from California, Nicky Sanders began training as a classical violinist at age 5. After serving as concertmaster of the Young People's Symphony Orchestra, he moved to Boston, MA to attend Berklee College of Music where he studied Jazz, Bluegrass and Composition. In 2004, Nicky moved to North Carolina to join Steep Canyon Rangers, first appearing on the album "One Dime at a Time" and three more records since. In 2010, the IBMA nominated the Rangers' recording of Nicky's fiddle tune "Mourning Dove" as Instrumental Performance of the Year. The song appears on the band's latest CD "Deep in the Shade". Nicky also enjoys solving New York Times crossword puzzles and drinking fresh-squeezed orange juice.
Mike Guggino grew up in the mountains of western North Carolina, where he learned to play piano, saxophone and guitar. He didn't encounter bluegrass until college, though, when friends from Kentucky introduced him to the sounds of Hot Rize, the Seldom Scene, Tony Rice, New Grass Revival, and John Hartford. From there, he found his way to the music of Bill Monroe, and the mandolin, an instrument that also harkened back to his Italian great-grandparents. Mike immediately began to immerse himself in the bluegrass tradition and write original songs of his own. Over the past decade, his unique compositions have become signature Rangers tunes. Mike is proud to play Kimble mandolins and mandolas.
Graham Sharp began playing banjo in college and almost immediately fell into playing with Charles and Woody. Originally introduced to bluegrass by his high school Latin teacher, Graham was drawn to the sounds of John Hartford and Norman Blake. Through the years he has penned more than thirty Steep Canyon Rangers songs. He lives in Asheville, North Carolina and most enjoys spending time with his wife and two children, Wade and Rosalie.
Woody Platt's musical career began in the third grade, when he sang in the Brevard, North Carolina Boys Choir. He played trumpet and baritone in his middle school band, then became interested in bluegrass and guitar as a student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He, Charles Humphrey, and Graham Sharp started playing together as students, eventually forming the Rangers. Woody founded the Mountain Song Festival as a fundraiser for the Boys and Girls Club of Transylvania County in 2006, and continues to co-produce it. He lives in Brevard, North Carolina with his wife, the singer and songwriter Shannon Whitworth, and spends much of his time off the road in a trout stream. [less...]
Hailing from such disparate locales as Tennessee (Price), Iowa (Kearney), Minneapolis (Olson), and Philadelphia (Calabrese), Lake Street Dive first gathered in a room together when they were students at Boston's New England Conservatory. "Mr. McDuck assembled the four of us, said we were now Lake Street Dive, and we were a 'free country' band," Bridget Kearney remembers. "He wrote this on a chalkboard in the ensemble room that we had our first rehearsal in. We intended to play country music in an improvised, avant-garde style – like Loretta Lynn meets Ornette Coleman. It sounded terrible! But the combination of people and personalities actually made a lot of sense and we had a great time being around each other and making music together."
Lake Street Dive makes the most of pop music virtues: solid, evocative song craft; propulsive grooves; and Price's disarming, forthright vocals. However, it's a personal strain of pop that is refracted through the band members' rich backgrounds: a sinewy Motown bass line is reborn with woody heft on Kearney's upright, Calabrese's drumming mixes timekeeping with more adventurous jazz-inflected outbursts, McDuck's nimble trumpet is an unexpectedly warm counterpoint to Price's singing. It all makes for a sound with familiar roots, but with a slant that is entirely their own. Lake Street Dive's eventual artistic breakthrough came not without struggle, and still surprises original instigator Mike "McDuck" Olson. "Now we're a pop band, leaning very heavily on soul and rock, with hook-y writing, which I never expected," he concludes. "If I could travel through time, I'd go back six years and play the new record for my younger self, just to assure him that the awkward, new-band phase doesn't last forever." [less...]
"At the time, I was into metal," Pribyl says. "So I went to this open mic night, and Jason was playing this honky-tonk stuff. I remember thinking, 'What the hell is this?'" But the best friendships are built on compromise and the more Pribyl and Sanford started playing together, the more a specific sound started to emerge – one that blended a ragged bar-rock attitude of bands like Uncle Tupelo with a few mild nods toward the iconoclastic end of contemporary country, like Jamey Johnson. Their core in place, Pribyl and Sanford soon began looking to expand their lineup. "Jason started an open mic night at a wine bar," Pribyl said. "From there, we'd invite 10 or 15 people to come with us out to this abandoned house and we'd just jam. We sort of hand-picked the band from there." In the kind of romantic twist all great rock stories require, one of them was Jason's old flame Emily Sholes. Another was Jennifer Flint, whose fiery vocals serve as a scorching counterbalance to Sanford's down-home croon. "I first met Jason in 2006," says Flint. "He was in one of his first bands, and I honestly just fell in love with the way he wrote." Local attention inspired the band to enroll in a Battle of the Bands contest sponsored by Hard Rock, which they handily won, and they soon flew out to Los Angeles to work on their debut with acclaimed producer Greg Collins (U2, Red Hot Chili Peppers, No Doubt) at The Nook Studio.
The results are spellbinding. They turn Blur's "Tender" into a rousing, gospel-informed hymn, and work similar magic on their own compositions: "Time to Begin," the first song Sanford, Pribyl and Flint wrote together, hip-swivels like something off Exile on Main Street; the trembling, minor-key vocal melody of "El Luna" recalls both Elliott Smith and Abbey Road-era Beatles and "Woe is Me" is a rollicking country stomp in the vein of Steve Earle. "I was trying to write a real Depression Era-style country song," Sanford explains, "and so I tried to put myself in the mindset of what people back then were going through." Though it began as an attempt to channel the loose rootsiness of Old Crow Medicine Show, the result is a barnburner – a big, raucous number with a booming backbeat and deep-fried electric guitar. Whether loud and rowdy or quiet and contemplative, Rosco Bandana balance both extremes perfectly. "It might sound cliché," Pribyl says, "but we're just these humble, good ol', down-to-earth Mississippi people. And when we play live, you can just see in our faces the joy of music. " [less...]
The FirstGrass Concert is completely free thanks to a partnership between Planet Bluegrass and the Town of Mountain Village.

Nice food and staff., and a great bar. – I'm becoming more of a fan of Applebees every time I visit. The food is fast, hot, and good. It's also starting to get a pretty good crowd at the bar later. It's a fun place to have some cocktails with friends after work, or even late night. I have gone to their Tuesday night trivia a few times and really enjoyed it.
Big portions of mainstream American fare, served up in a convivial, family atmosphere. – In Short
A low-key, friendly environment attracts plenty of families to this reliable chain. Kids in the big booths--often clutching free balloons and crayons--usually outnumber adults sitting at the bar. The menu offers filling American fare with no surprises, from mozzarella sticks and nachos to rollups and burgers. Entrees include steaks, fajitas and main dish salads. The calorie-conscious can select from a list of Weight Watchers-inspired dishes like mesquite chicken salad and grilled tilapia with mango salsa.
Kids Nite on Wednesdays – From the balloons, crayons and fun kid menus to the "Kids eat free" nite every Wednesdays, I would say Applebee's is very kid friendly! They have a full bar with almost everything you would want (except mushrooms and onions for drinks, so if you must have them, bring your own.) They can easily accomidate a large crowd. They love to celebrate birthdays with the Applebee's Birthday song, some balloons, and a whole lot of clapping. Depending on who is working in the kitchen, the service can tend to be a bit slow on very busy nites. There is a cook named Able, I believe... when he is there the food comes out promptly!!! I think the food is really good. The one good thing about a chain like this is that you always know what to expect. It is pretty much the same from one store to the other. Also, you get very resonable portions sizes for the money. Now, you aren't going to get away with a $5.00 dinner like you would at McDonald's, but you aren't going to be shelling out the bucks like you do at Olive Garden, either. On average, for my family of four (My husband, my 8 year old, my 18 year old and myself) we can get away with paying $35-$40 for dinner, including tip. This does NOT include drinks as we don't drink. I would recommend it! And if you do go, try to go on a Friday for the AYCE fish fry. They have the best fish!!! And while you are there ask to be seated in Christine's (the server) section! She is the best server we have EVER had!
Not Good – Your average chain food. Small portions average quality at best EXPENSIVE!!!

About 700 people joined the SPCA for the unveiling Saturday of the Stanley James Walker Pet Care and Adoption Center.
Built with $5 million donated by the late Stanley James Walker, the SPCA upgraded to more space for the dogs and cats waiting to be adopted, providing them with a living environment that surpasses the expectations of their former facility.
"We will be able to house three times the animals we were able to handle at the old facility," said Tom Jacobs, executive director of the SPCA of Northern Nevada. The ability to handle more animals will hopefully lower animal euthanasia rates and improve their habitat, Jacobs said. To further its ability to provide care for the animals, the clinic now houses an on-site veterinarian who conducts low-cost operations, vaccinations and general animal care.
Located at 4950 Spectrum Blvd., the new building features a highly ventilated kennel area, which uses fresh airflow and a cooling system that circulates 15 times each hour to lower the disease rate among the animals, Jacobs said. To lower costs of maintaining the new facility, the SPCA was awarded a $445,000 grant from NV Energy to equip the new facility with solar panels. The system is scheduled to be in place within two months and will manage one-third of the power for the building, Jacobs said.
"We're hoping to keep animals healthier, happier and thus make them more adoptable," Director of Development Allison Edwards said.
With all the extra space, the SPCA has many options to care for its animals.
"If we expand and hire another veterinarian we will be able to handle more operations and vaccinations for the community," Edwards said.
A section of the new building will be dedicated to educational and behavioral pet training. The SPCA will hold classes for its volunteers and for the public to boost people's knowledge about their pets and stimulate interaction in the community, Edwards said.
The community is not the only driving factor behind the SPCA. The organization relies heavily on volunteers, who help with day-to-day operations. Ken Damon is in his third week of volunteering with the SPCA and helped complete the move to the new facility.
"Their positivity toward volunteers keeps me coming back to them," he said, adding that he likes "everything" about the new facility. "The size, the space, the cleanliness and the living environment for the animals have greatly improved."
Part of that living environment is the outdoor play areas for the dogs and cats. Not only is the indoor living area of high quality, the playpen comes equipped with a unique, synthetic turf that doubles as a drainage system for the animals' waste, Edwards said.
Though the physical move from the corner of Fourth and Vine streets to the new location is complete, the transition to the larger building has employees wandering through the clinic smiling at the amount of space that has been utilized in the new facility.
"Everyone is having a hard time finding their way around here," Jacobs said with a laugh.
